22 / Existing on the Side

[gummyghosting]

I'm gummy, I'm 22, and still exist on the internet. I enjoy creating art, crocheting, and sometimes writing.

This is my sideblog to keep my old handle and maybe post my work but no promises.

MINORS DNI please

There is a lot of media (not all) that I consume and create that are not suitable for all audiences and I respect you enough to hope that you can respect what I'm comfortable with. Otherwise you will be blocked.

My tags are: Art: #ghostly scribbles Writing: #writings on the wall Text: #the ouji board (bc it's like the luigi board)

I will not tolerate you shitting on me or other people, I will answer things if my input is needed but if you keep bringing up stuff that has nothing to do with me then politely fuck off. My DMs are open for discussions, but I also reserve the right to not have to engage with everyone. If you have an issue with me then let us try to take care of the problem privately.

Also don't be weird, I joke with my friends but I really am just a slug in a clown costume trying to live my silly life.

Reasons Why Fans of Color Leave/Don’t Interact with Fandom

Casual racism that is brushed off as “an innocent mistake” or “they didn’t mean it” and then everyone pretending like it didn’t happen and moving on with their day (repeat)

Speaking over fans of color about issues that pertain to them specifically

When fans of color speak out about something that makes them uncomfortable or why that don’t interact with it (usually because of the racial/ethnic bias) they are accused of being anti’s or pro-censorship

Characters of color being used as scapegoats/bashed/plot devices 

Characters of color never getting happy endings/real development

Backlash against characters of color if they do anything other than be a white character’s side kick/best friend

Actors of characters of color being harassed for something their character did or didn’t do

White characters/actors getting all the attention/credit despite the fact that they are a side character to a POC or on the same level as the POC

Fanfic authors patting themselves on the back for writing a “realistic” character of color and it’s just a bunch of stereotypes

Being told that they should be happy they were even included when they call out the above people

White fans crying about persecution/exclusion because their fav character/trope/kink/ship isn’t loved by all 

Fan artists re-imaging characters of color as white/lightening skin tone

Everyone rushing to a white fans defense after a well deserved call out while the fan of color receives hate

Never having a safe fandom space and always having to be on guard with new people/fandoms/chats etc because they’ve been burned before

Feel free to add

[blacktabris]

- fetishization and depersonalization of characters of color (to serve the white character’s narrative)

- (re)writing characters of color as abusive and/or violent to infantilize white characters

- being asked to explain why ___ is racist when it’s been spoken about at length or could be googled

so embarrassing to get obsessed with your own oc but it doesn't fuel you creatively or motivate you at all you just sort of sit there. like yeah I've been thinking a lot about blorbo from my mind. no images of them exist in the world and they have maybe 3 personality traits so far. I would rather die than attempt to write about them. I've spent the last 48 hours rotating them in my brain though

I can't believe this is even a debate but even if someone's disability is genuinely fully caused by their own actions they still deserve accommodation and community

Yes this applies to substance use yes this applies to reckless behaviour yes it applies to purposefully injuring yourself.

If someone disables or injures themselves whether on purpose to such a large degree or do actions that they know will lead to disability then they need aid regardless of how you feel about their actions

me: uh oh! if i fail to block any more of these spells, the evil wizard will take over my mind and make me suck him off!!! i need to be careful, i can feel it working already...

the evil wizard trying to blow my head off with lightning bolts: that's not what I'm trying to do

please reblog this if it is okay to anonymously confess something to you.

oh we are never getting out of the learned helplessness cycle are we gang

[a-kind-of-merry-war]

the only person responsible for you is yourself. this means it is entirely on you to:

check the tags on fic

block people/tags that cause you distress

look up trigger warnings for shows/movies/books

if you cannot find warnings, or something hasn't been tagged, make a decision for yourself as to if you proceed or not

register when something is causing you distress, and stop consuming that thing

If you have a severe nut allergy and are given a snack you've never tried before, you ask what the ingredients are. If you eat it without checking and have a reaction, that's on you, not the stranger who gave it to you who has no idea what you're allergic to.

So, one of my mutuals reblogged this dress a few days ago, and as soon as I saw it I knew I needed to draw Ray from Binary Star Hero in it.

🗡Favor PSA Please Read!🗡

Sorry if this scared anyone- The game is still in development, dont worry!

As I have finished my first draft of the main story I have been doing a lot of thinking, and I just basically want to remind everyone that:

Favor is NOT meant to be a fantasy fulfillment romance game! Though there will be romance, Favor is a game that will have really heavy/ brutal moments and heavy themes in it.

I will include extensive content warnings for everything of course, but I really want to emphasize that Favor isn't a fantasy fulfillment feel good game so people don't walk into this thinking its a fun romance yandere dating vn - although this subversion was intended to be part of the point, I have decided it's better to be upfront about what Favor is, - or rather is not so people won't put a lot of excitement in this to only be disappointed.

(I know this next part sounds pretentious as hell, and im sorry for it 🥲) For Favor, you will need to employ media literacy and view it through a media critical lens rather than escapism.

I know a lot of people are bound to be disappointed, or possibly even genuinely dislike me because of Favor, but honestly Favor is turning out exactly how I wanted, my vision for it is not something I am going to change, It's a game that means a lot to me, and I'm super happy with how it's coming together.

I think the type of person this game is for will love it too 💕 I really look forward to the day it's done and like... the 3 people who end up liking it can yap with me about it because I've been in my head with it for farrrrr too long lol

[favorvn]

I was NOT expecting the last post I made to get so much attention 😭 I know it's kinda dumb but I always forget how many people are invested in Favor 🥹💕.

Here are some backgrounds I painted as a lil Friday treat 🥰💖 thank you everyone for your kindness and support!

(Tho painting backgrounds is like the #1 thing I hate, after having to draw so many backgrounds for this game.... I am getting way faster at painting them.... silver linings I guess :3 )

now say it with me: authors/artists dont owe you moral purity. an author/artist job is not to hold you by the hand & tell you exactly what is Good™ & what is Bad™. you should be able to think for yourself

[orpheuslament]

"yes but depictions of (morally questionable thing) are only okay if its punished in the story" thats the hays code. you just reinvented the hays code

[subatoism]

Love love love characters that present themselves as emotionally open social butterflies but the more you see of them the more obvious it is that they’re the most closed off fuckers in the story. Sure, they want to help you with your personal problems and messy emotions, but if you turn that shit back on them, they’ll shut down or deflect every time. Why are you sticking your nose in their business anyway? It’s not like it matters. They’re not a person, they’re just a role being played. They’re the guy who fixes things and saves people. Please ignore the man behind the mask, he’s fine. Everything’s fine.
